We came together as one family, united in faith and purpose, at the Special Interfaith Prayer Session held this morning at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena, Onikan, Lagos, to seek divine guidance, protection and victory for our President, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR; our Lagos State governorship candidate, Dr. Obafemi Hamzat; and all APC candidates.
With God on our side, a united party behind our candidates and the people firmly at the heart of our campaign, victory is within our reach.
We will continue to work, mobilise and engage our people with humility and conviction. The task ahead is clear, and together, we shall deliver a resounding victory for the APC.
May Almighty Allaah continue to guide President Tinubu, Governor Sanwo Olu, Dr. Obafemi Hamzat and all our leaders. May He grant our candidates wisdom, strength and victory at the polls.
I am deeply relieved and grateful over the successful rescue of the abducted schoolchildren and teachers in Oyo State.
I specially commend President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, whose leadership, unwavering commitment to the security of Nigerians, and firm support for our security architecture made this successful operation possible. Mr. President has once again demonstrated that the protection of lives remains a top priority of his administration.
I also applaud the Federal Government, the Nigerian Police Force, the Nigerian Army, Governor Seyi Makinde, and every security and intelligence personnel who worked tirelessly and in synergy to secure the safe return of the victims. Their professionalism, courage, and sacrifice deserve the appreciation of every Nigerian.
My heartfelt congratulations go to the rescued children, their teachers, and their families, who have endured unimaginable pain and anxiety. I equally extend my deepest condolences to the families of those who sadly lost their lives during this unfortunate incident. Our thoughts and prayers remain with them.
I also salute the Nigerian Union of Teachers, especially the Lagos State Wing, for standing firmly with their colleagues throughout this difficult period and for demonstrating the strength of solidarity within our education sector.
This successful rescue reinforces my belief that when visionary leadership, committed security agencies, and united citizens work together, no challenge is insurmountable. May this strengthen our collective resolve to keep every child safe and every school secure.

@TlouMr_S@DrKessyJulius1@SandileMakeba U are a complete fool, this is 21st century. Trust me, SA will suffer again, white people will torment u guys beyond your imagination. Nigeria invested in your country heavily but u end up treating Nigerians like garbage. Ur MTN & other related companies will be nationalised soon
@MDNnewss South Africans with free lunches, I advise uncharitable spokesman not to bother to travel to any African country. SA will certainly get special treatment from other Africans very soon.
Shame to #SouthAfrica
@DonaldMakhasane@NadiasonSebit Sending your people back home unprepared.
Stopping all South African products from coming in
Massive nationalisation all South African companies.
This is the right time to isolate South Africa by other African countries.
“Sacred Covenant of Citizenship: Islam, Security and Our Duty to the Nigerian State” -
Citizenship is not a title. It is a covenant.
Security is not the government’s burden alone; it is our shared responsibility. A stronger Nigeria begins with citizens who understand that patriotism is action, not applause.

Today, the Lagos State House of Assembly turned a new page as Mrs. Adenike Abolanle Oshinowo was sworn in as the new Clerk of the House.
A distinguished legal practitioner, accomplished legislative draftsman, and seasoned public administrator, Mrs. Oshinowo brings over two decades of exemplary service, deep institutional knowledge, and an impressive record of excellence to this important office.
Her remarkable career, spanning the Ministry of Justice, the House of Assembly Service Commission, and now the Assembly, reflects dedication, competence, and an unwavering commitment to strengthening governance and democratic institutions. With advanced training from renowned institutions, including Harvard Business School, she represents the very best of public service leadership.
I am confident that her wealth of experience, professionalism, and vision will further enhance the efficiency, effectiveness, and legislative excellence for which the Lagos State House of Assembly is known.
I urge members of staff and management to extend their full cooperation and support to the new Clerk as she assumes this responsibility. Together, we must continue to build a stronger institution in service to the people of Lagos State.
As we welcome Mrs. Oshinowo, we also express our profound appreciation to the outgoing Clerk, Barr. Olalekan Biliaminu Onafeko, for his years of dedicated service, impactful reforms, and invaluable contributions to the growth of the Assembly.
Congratulations, Mrs. Adenike Abolanle Oshinowo. We wish you a successful and impactful tenure.

As Muslims across Lagos State, Nigeria, and the world celebrate Eid al-Adha, I extend my warm felicitations and heartfelt prayers to all faithful.
Eid al-Adha remains a sacred season of sacrifice, obedience, reflection, gratitude, and compassion. It is a reminder of the enduring values of peace, unity, love, and selflessness that bind us together as one people and strengthen the foundation of our nation.
This celebration also offers us another opportunity to renew our collective commitment to the growth, progress, and prosperity of Lagos State and Nigeria. I urge us all to continue supporting leadership and policies that promote development and improve the lives of our people.
I deeply appreciate Nigerians, particularly members and supporters of our great party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), for the massive turnout and active participation during the recently concluded party primaries. Your participation reflects the strength of our democracy and the confidence reposed in the leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the Renewed Hope Agenda.
As we celebrate with family, friends, and loved ones, I encourage everyone to do so responsibly while offering prayers for continued peace, stability, and progress in our dear Lagos State and Nigeria.
On behalf of the Lagos State House of Assembly, I wish all Muslims a peaceful, joyous, and fulfilling Eid al-Adha celebration.
Eid Mubarak.
